SUMMARY: Meteorologist Noah Bergen from Fox 35 discusses Tropical Storm Sarah, currently at 40 mph, which may approach hurricane status by Friday. The storm’s track is uncertain, with potential impacts varying from a hurricane to a depression depending on its path along the Honduran coastline. It’s expected to move into the Gulf by Monday, possibly causing tropical development south of a certain latitude. Remnants of Sarah could merge with a cold front, leading to severe weather across parts of Florida by next Wednesday. While a hurricane threat is diminished, rain and potential wind from Sarah’s remnants are still possible.

FOX 35’s Storm Team Meteorologist Noah Bergren has the latest update from the National Hurricane Center on Tropical Storm Sara. See the latest track and what the models are suggesting for impacts to Florida towards the middle of next week.

SUMMARY: The family of missing South Florida woman Anna Kovich is a step closer to closure as her estranged husband, David Kovich, has been charged with her murder and kidnapping. Kovich has been in federal custody since May, but today’s charges provide hope for her family, who believe it may lead to answers about her disappearance in February while the couple was amid a bitter divorce. Surveillance footage allegedly shows him purchasing duct tape and spray paint in Spain. Kovich’s attorney contests the evidence, calling it insufficient. Kovich is scheduled for arraignment in federal court next week.

CBS News Miami’s Joan Murray has the latest on the investigation and what happened in court on Thursday.
